FRANCIS LYFORD, OF BOSTON, AND EXETER, 
AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS. 



BY WILLIAM LEWIS WELCH 

of the seventh generation. 



INTRODUCTION. 



Somebody has said that the genealogist wears leaden 
shoes, or something to that effect. I have found it so. 
It is now many years since I began studying and arranging 
the records of my mother's family, and the genealogy has 
increased in extent as material accumulated, until it has 
become a record of the entire Lyford family in America. 
It is necessarily lacking in many details of dates and full 
names, for people written to would not answer, or could 
not give particulars, if they did answer. I have found 
but one Lyford that was not a member of the family. He 
was Richard Lyford who was living in Boston in 1896, 
and then about forty -two years of age. He and all of his 
family, including his grandfather, were born at White- 
church, Oxfordshire, England. 

One Lyford I have been unable to locate, that is Jacob 
Lyford, mentioned in New Hampshire State Papers, Vol. 
XIII, p. 77, as of North Hampton, 7 June, 1742. 

It is hoped that any persons discovering errors or 
omissions in the following pages, will write to William 
L. Welch, Salem, Mass., that notes may be made for 
further corrections, 

REV. JOHN lyford. 

The first of the name of Lyford in this country, was 
Rev. John Lyford v.,ho arrived at Plymouth in March, 

(1) 



2 FRANCIS LYFORD, OF BOSTON, AND EXETER, 

1624. He was sent over by the company in England as 
minister for the colony. With him came his wife and 
several children. He had been settled in Ireland for 
several years, having gone there from England in 1620. 
Undoubtedly he was of the Established Church and was 
sent over to counteract the Cono;rei2:ationalist tendencies 
inculcated by Robinson, with the hope of bringing the 
colonists back to the Church. Trying to carry out the 
ideas of the home company as above outlined, soon 
brought him into trouble with the authorities at Plymouth, 
and, early in the summer of 1624, some few months after 
his arrival, he was expelled from the colony, being given, 
however, six months to remove his family. He moved to 
Nantasket (Hingham), and was followed by Roger Conant 
and some others of the Church party. Later they became 
partly reconciled to the colony and occasionally visited 
there. Lyford acquired property, or made himself so 
friendly with the people at Nantasket, that the land or 
water, or both, at the mouth of the river (now Weir river) 
was named " Lyford's likeing ;" a deed dated 1-7-1649 
(seventh of March), and recorded in Suffolk Deeds, 
Liber i, mentions "foure Acres meadow more or lesse at 
Laifords likeing." The History of Hingham also mentions 
" Lyford's Liking Run," as being a small brook in that 
vicinity. Probably early in 1625 they went with Conant 
to Cape Ann, where Conant had been made governor, and 
there Lyford preached and administered the ordinances 
of the Established Church. Conant as governor, and 
Lyford as minister, with others, came to Nautnkeag 
during the autumn of 1625 ; and through the winter of 
1625-6 and nearly to the end of the summer of 1627, 
Lyford was minister at Salem. For some three years 
he had been Conant's minister, and for the last ten 
months, or longer, of that time, he had been at Naumkeag 
(Salem), or fully two years before the establishment of 
the First Church, so called, or the ordination of Higginson 
and Skelton. Roger Conant's son, Roger, born in 1626, 
the first child born in Salem, was not baptized at the First 
Church, after his lather united with it , as all his brothers 
and sisters were ; undoubtedly for the reason that he had 
been baptized previously, and by Lyford. 



AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS. 3 

Mr. John Fells, master of the " Jacobb," of about eighty 
tons, had been commissioned by the Virginia Company 
of London, to transport passengers and goods to Virginia. 
On one of his voyages he had been wrecked near Cape 
Cod, at the beginning of the winter of 1626-7, and 
remained at Plymouth during the summer of 1627. During 
this time Fells visited Naumkeag, and other places, and 
probably gave Lyford that " loving invitation " to go to 
Virginia. Fells and his party succeeded in obtaining 
passage in a " cuple of barks at ye latter end of sumer " 
in 1627, and probably Lyford went with him. All that is 
further known of Lyford is, that "he shortly after dyed in 
Virginia." Judging of Lyford's character by Bradford's 
account, which is copied by nearly every one who writes 
about those times, one gets an impression that he was 
capable of any kind of villany ; but, on considering how 
Roger Conantand others adhered to him, one realizes that 
there must have been a very different side of his character 
and one worthy of consideration. It would be very 
interesting to have Ly ford's own story of the troubles 
placed before us. 

John Lyford had several children ; how many came 
with him I cannot say. We have records of Ruth and 
Mordecai, and possibly Ann. His widow, Sarah, married 
at Charlestown, 10 Oct., 1634, Edmund Hubbard (Hobart) 
senior, widower, of Hingbam (Nantasket) ; she died 23 
June, 1649. His daughter, Ruth, married 19 Apr. , 1 643, 
James Bate (Bates) and died 9 Mar., 1689/90. There 
was an Ann Lyford who died at Hingham in July, 1639 ; 
possibly she was a daughter of ffohn Lyford. In May, 
1635, there sailed from London in the Suzan <& Ellen, 
Ann Lieford aged 13 years, but where she afterwards 
lived is not known. She may have been a daughter of 
Lyford, and the Ann who died in 1639. 

John Lyford's son, Rev. Obediah, died in Ireland and 
Mr. Hubbard was chosen, 6 Aug., 1639, guardian of 
Mordecai, then 14 years old, who was to receive property 
that Obediah had left. Mr. Hubbard appointed William 
Bladen, Alderman of Dublin, and John Fisher, of the same 
place, attorneys, to sell a lease at Leballeglish, County 
Ardmagh.

lu 1642, are recorded in Suffolk Deeds, Liber i, receipts 
from Ruth and " Mordecay " Lyford to their stepfather 
Edmund Hubbard, of property left them by their father 
John Lyford, by his last will and testament. A record 
of his will has not been found, and therefore it is impossible 
to learn further of John Lyford's family. Nothing further 
is known of Mordecai. 

I have been unable to trace any connection between 
this John Lyford and Francis Lyford who first appears in 
Boston in 1667. 

FRANCIS LYFORD. •^'^- ,,. 

I find the earliest mention of Francis Lyford, in Sufiblk 
Deeds, Liber v, pp. 378-379, where he appears as one of 
the witnesses to a conveyance of land, etc., at the "South 
end of the Towne of Boston," butting on a street or 
highway leading from Boston towards Roxbury. He signs 
with three others : Robert Helmes, Nath. Hubbert, 
firancis Lyford, William Pearse, Scr., under date of " 12'"^ 
ffebruary, 1667." Again in Sufiblk Deeds, Liber vi, pp. 
219-220, under date of 20 Sept., 1670, appears this 
mortgage : " John Chandler, for and in Consideration of 
Eighteen pounds to me in hand pajd by firancis Lyford 
of Boston, marriner .... for euer all that my dwelling 
house & outhousing thereunto belonging and two acres of 
land or more or less in Roxbury .... and tenn acres & 
a halfe of land lying & being in Roxbury in the nookes next 
dorchester & twenty two acres of land lying in Roxbury 
in the Eigh*^' lot in the thousand acres next Dedham. 
.... to be released for £19, 20"' March next Ensuing 
the date hereof in the dwelling house of Thomas Smith in 
Bosto", Shipwright or Elsewhere." 

In Sutfolk Deeds, Liber vi, pp. 320-321, appears the 
following deed which was acknowledged 9th July, 1672. 

"To All People to whome this writing or Deede shall 
come wee Thomas Smith of Boston in New England 
Builder & Elisabeth his wife send Greeting. Know yee 
that for & in consideracon of the Lone wee the saide 
Thomas Smith & Elisabeth doe beare vnto o"^ Sone in Law

Eighteene foote to begin or beginning at the Easterly end 
of the saide Smith his dwelling house & Soe to continue 
the said Breadth in every part of the said peice or parcell 
of Land hereby given & mentioned " 

Witness John Bradish, Peter Chapline. 

Francis Lyford, after the death of his wife (perhaps in 
1677), sold the land given him as above, as appears in 
Suftblk Deeds, Liber xi, pp. 137-138. 

" Francis Lyford of Boston in the Colony of the 
Massachusetts in New England marriner for £90 of 
lawful money of New England to him in hand .... by 
Magnis White of Boston afores'^ marrin'', all that his 
mefsuage or tenement scituate lying and being in Boston

onely an highway of twelve foote wide crofs the s*^ Land 
laid out by the Select men of s'^ Boston, for a passage 
from the Towne to the sd Sconce)'* 

Acknowledged 9 ffebruary, 1678. 

"John Bradish & Francis Liford haue libertie granted 
them to wharfe before theire house & land, they makeing 
good and keeping in repaire the highway between s** 
wharfe & house," 12 Feb., 1677/8 (7th report Boston; 
Record Commissioners, p. 115). 

Francis Lyford bought of Benjamin Gillam and Hannah 
his wife, for £50, a parcell of land, beach and flats " near 

unto the Sconce Excepting onely one hundred 

foote privilege from the Barracado or outmost wharves 
next the Sea channell to the Landward which the 
proprieto'^ are to enjoy by Agreement. Lyford to Keepe 
a sufficient highway through the Lands &c according to 
order of Selectmen " (Suffolk Deeds, Liber xi. pp. 213- 
2U). 

After the second marriage of Francis Lyford, he 
conveyed to his first father-in-law, the above described 
land bought of Benj . Gillam as appears by Suftblk Deeds, 
Liber xvii, p. 72, under date of 18 June, 1689, viz. : 



b FRANCIS LYFORD, OF BOSTON, AND EXETER, 

. . . . " rt'rancis Lyford of the Towne of Exeter in the 
colony of the jNIassachnsetts in New Ens^land, Marriner 
and Kebecka his wife, for £S6 of Lawful money of New 
England, paid by Thomas Smith of Boston, Blacksmith. 
All that a Certaine peice or parcel of Land, beach and 
fflatts, Scituate lying and being in Boston, near unto the 

Sconce, soe farr as the said Lyfords propriety 

Doth runn or Extend." 

Francis Lyford married his second wife in Exeter, 
N. H., and I find in Exeter, N. H., Deeds, that "tfrancis 
Leyford" of Exeter, Mariner, bought, 29 Oct., 1683, of 
Robert Tufton Mason, Esqr., sixty acres of land in Exeter, 
known as " Samuel Dudley's great pasture," and lifteen 
acres of marsh land adjoining ; also " 7 acres in Sheep 
pasture on side of Samuel Dudley deceased his house." 
He was to pay an annual rental of thirteen shillings lawful 
money of New England and one shilling for every dwelling 
house (more than one). 

Fiancis Lyford was selectman of Exeter in 1689 and 
1690. 

In a list of persons in Exeter who had received grants 
of land from the town, under date of 28 INIarch, 1698, 
appears Francis Lyford as having 200 acres. During 
King William's war, Francis Lyford served from 6 Feb., 
1696, to 5 March, 1696, in Capt. Kinsley Hall's Company 
of Militia in Exeter. 

In New Hampshire Provincial Papers, Vol. ii, p. 79, 
appears the following Custom House Return : 

"Custom House in New Hampshire, Portsmouth in 
New England, October 14"\ 1692, Clearings outward, 
Boston.

Lyfords room, and that the selectmen act therein accord-

382). 

In a deed dated 16 June, 1715, Francis Lyford was 
recorded as "weaver."

2 Thomas Lyford {Francis^), born in Boston, 25 
March, 1672; died in Exeter, N. H., between 29 Dec, 
1726, date of his will, and 7 June, 1727, will proved; 
married at Exeter, Judith, daughter of Moses and Eliza- 
beth (Hersey) Gilman. 

Thomas Lyford was granted 30 acres of land, 3 Feb., 
1698; 30 acres, 21 Feb., 1698; and was on list of 
distributees, 12 April, 1725, as having had 100 acres. 

The selectmen of Boston were impowered by the 
Superior Court of Judicature, 26 Oct., 1697, to sell a 
small house and land in Boston, the property of Thomas 
Smith, deceased, for the purpose of paying for the support 
of his widow and of the son, Thomas Smith, who had been 
long sick. On the 20 Sept., 1715, it was represented to 
the town that Elizabeth Lyford, granddaughter of said 
Thomas Smith, had a right to a portion of land belonging 
to said Thomas Smith, then in possession of the town, 
and a committee was appointed to look into the matter. 
They reported that said Elizabeth Lyford had a right to 
the land and recommended that it be given to her. On 
8 May, 1716, she quitclaimed her right in the house and 
land sold by the town 26 Oct., 1697, and possession of the 
land cla/med was given her.* 

Meanwhile Elizabeth Lyford received a deed from her 
brother Thomas Lyford, of his share in her grandfather 
Smith's estate, as appears by the following : 

"Thomas Lyford of Exeter within the Province of New 
Hampshire in New England Marriner * * * * for and
